BLAZE Martial Arts & Personal Safety

19/09/2026

There is so much confusion around self defence and what you are legally allowed to do to protect yourself.

So many dumb comments online saying

'you're not allowed to protect yourself, the police will do you for it'..

The chance of being found guilty of using an unreasonable amount of force in self-defence is actually 11 in 20 million.

You see, between 1990 – 2005 a survey was undertaken that looked at 20 million cases that went before the courts.

Out of those 20 million cases, only 11 people were found guilty of using unreasonable/excessive force in cases of self-defence.

So, the chance of being found guilty (statistically) is just 11 in 20 million.

You have the legal right to protect yourself, the law is there to protect you, IF you do so in good faith (not in anger, retaliation, or once the threat has passed).

In June, violence towards women and girls accounted for more than 1 third of all recorded crime in Yeovil.

One third!

Dont leave it too late. Get trained in self-defence.

What can happen in a year?

This. 🔥

One year of showing up.
One year of training.
One year of getting fitter, stronger and more confident.

Yes, the physical transformation is incredible — but what we love most is everything that comes with it.

The fitness. The energy. The confidence. The determination. The belief in what you're capable of.

This is what happens when martial arts becomes more than just a workout.

Absolutely phenomenal progress — and thoroughly deserved. 👊🔥

Imagine where you could be this time next year.

Mindset is everything 👊

If your GOAL doesn't CHALLENGE YOU,

it won't CHANGE YOU 👊

That's why martial arts have a belt grading system, to encourage you to step outside the comfort zone and GROW.

Small steps to Black.

Marking your progress and seeing what you've achieved is FUNDAMENTAL in sticking at an exercise routine LONG-TERM 💪

And if you're serious about results, you've gotta go all in long-term, right?

(Grading weekend incoming next week 🤩)

Last weekend we had two new black belt upgrades & boy, they did NOT disappoint!

I don't often remember a student's first grading but i remember Seb's first AND second.

Because at age 6, his first panel grading was understandably very overwhelming and he almost didnt complete.

However for his second grading he returned like a tasmanian devil 😆 a totally different person, fire, energy, power, speed. It was a directly opposite comparison 🤯

But Seb loves life, so definitely brings plenty of 'personality' to his training 😂, so we don’t always see that fire at every class..

But we certainly DID see fire at his Black Belt grading 🔥

No stopping, no doubt, no waivering.

Every time we thought he might start flagging, he JUST KEPT GOING 💪

This is what makes a true black belt. The mental resilience to not quit.

To not even consider it an option.

He even managed to punch his 6'4" sparring partner in the head! 😂

We are incredibly proud to award Seb the grade of Junior Black Belt, please join us in congratulating him ✨️🙏🥋

🔥 ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT CLASSES YOUR CHILD COULD ATTEND 🔥

This weekend, we’re launching our brand-new Power & Performance Seminar but,

Let’s be clear—this seminar isn’t about teaching young people how to hit “bloody hard.”

It’s about training their minds.

It’s about teaching them to stop holding back.

To stop worrying about what everyone else thinks.

To silence the fear of being judged.

Too many young people hold back. They know the techniques, but self-consciousness prevents them performing with confidence, power and purpose. That doesn’t just affect their martial arts or grading results—it limits their opportunity to discover what they’re truly capable of.

This seminar will help them:

🔥 Develop explosive speed and controlled power
🔥 Push beyond self-consciousness and fear of failure
🔥 Build confidence, resilience and an unstoppable mindset

I am so excited to get this class started, it's going to be FIRE.

Ideal for ages 10–16.

Saturday 5th Sept, 9-10am
